Accurate grading underpins drainage performance, structural stability, safe equestrian surfaces, and long-term landscape usability—especially important for Florida’s sandy soils and heavy seasonal rains.
What We Grade
- Building & barn pads
- Drive approaches
- Paddock / arena bases (Horse Areas)
- Yard re-slope
- Swales & diversion contours
- New Construction
Process
- Bench & elevation references
- Soil & moisture assessment
- Cut/fill strategy & haul plan
- Rough grade (laser/GPS)
- Layered compaction / proof roll
- Fine grade tolerance check
- Stabilization (seed, aggregate, fabric)
Precision & Drainage
Integrated slope design (often 1–2%) directs water into planned paths or installed drainage systems to prevent pooling—critical for Southwest Florida’s wet climate.
Applications
- Structure prep
- Foundation slope correction
- Arena sub-base
- Yard smoothing
- Pond berm shaping
Quality Indicators
- Accurate slopes
- Uniform compaction
- Positive drainage
- Minimal overcut
